Astoreth carefully set her wherry down and turned her jeweled eyes on Rilaleeyth. She could sense her fellow green's excitement, but she waited a few long moments before offering a response. How are you doing, Rilaleeyth? Astoreth asked pensively. Outwardly she showed interest, but inwardly she was more amused than anything else. Rilaleeyth was so very delicate and pure; Astoreth couldn't understand it, much like her own bonded didn't understand J'ver.
She's always been afraid of me she thought with satisfaction. Astoreth didn't particularly enjoy the fear of others, but she did find it awfully funny in cases like this. What did Rila think she was going to do, bite her?
Hey, Rila is actually sweet. Leave her be.
Astoreth gave a mental shrug. If you insist she cooed, eyes flushing blue as she lowered her nose to bump A'liran. He reached out and wrapped one arm around her as he continued to watch J'ver.
"'Parted ways'? Can I ask why?" he greenrider asked as he took a few steps forward, his fingers sliding reluctantly off of Ast's hide as he walked. The dragon loomed in his background like a gargoyle (not unlike Tyrrisath, really) as A;liran closed the gap between himself and J'ver. The plants were respectfully avoided.
"You know, the rumor is-"
A'liran....
A'liran paused and looked up. He saw a brown dragon with distinctive gold highlights sailing riderless nearby. Tyrrisath? Oh, he wasn't close enough to be spying. It must have been coincidence.
Astoreth wasn't so sure. Rilaleeyth she said privately, Did he speak to you? I tried to call to him, but he is being quiet. Well, more than usual. There was a hint of annoyance in her tone. Shards, Tyrrisath was boring. I am worried, though she added quickly. Do you think something is wrong with her bonded?
Astoreth reported the same to her rider, who had started pacing again. Really? That's hilarious he said. He cast his eyes on J'ver and studied him, waiting to see if he would react to any unseen promptings. After the other greenrider's sarcastic comment, A'liran wasn't so sure that his initial assessment was right. The story was that J'ver dumped S'kef. A'liran wanted it to be true, but if it was, wouldn't J'ver be relieved?
"The story is that you dumped him. Is that true? It would take balls to say no to a guy like that." A'liran paused, thinking back irritably to his handful of flights with the man. "J'ver...I don't know what you saw in him. You know what he thinks of all of us, right? Apparently you really were his better half, though. All the rumors say he's drinking himself to death."
He paused, and smirked.
"I hope he does."
